LAMAR, 1t IS generally conceded. will so to the Supreme Court Bench and that be will, ss Secretary of the Interior
 be succeeded by General yiIss- ina present Postmaster General. Tn tba elevation Of Lamar there will probably be no opposition. Inasmuch ss he is the only oBe of President Cleveland's C.bi- net who has acquitted himself with satis- faction to the country. Of undeniable ability ana unquestionel integrity. he won the confidence of the countr, by ms w:se and equitsbls rulings. He made friends with the people of the west through repeated intercessions in their behalf again [ the ruiuous decisiops of MT. Sparks. Of General Villas, his promised successor,. fsw such things can be said. As Postmaster General be IS in the judgement of tbe country, a fail urs. His incompetsDey has cropped ou. hundred times since his accession to office. 10 the detriment of business and '----- , NASS bA hAS pGtp4c. 1nt HUH ser vice of the United States is ID wretched condition and for this Villas is most certainly responsible. The foreign se5- vice was also made to suffer with the domestic mails, and the almost univer- sai protest entered against his penny wise snd pound foolish policy forced the much needed relief. The postal department of the United States is an immense affair and its successful mar sgemert depends largely on ihe man st the head. Clevelsnd's selection in this instance is a most unfortunate on, and should he furtLer elevate VI'ss, whose own Cfficisl ncts have proclaimed his unfitness from the housetors, to tLe su-I gust position of & Secretary of Interior, the appointment will be deeply deplored the country over.

Cop is good, but occasionally he is rather slow ID msDifesting that good goodness. z Sparks. the CommissioneI General of the United States Land of fce, has resigned. and the President has accepted his resignation, therefore lei us g:ve thanks. Sparks Is said to be an honest man and possibly be is, so far Gs d virulent mOnOmgDisc can be. His one predomiDBtIng and absorbing idea of "iraud" rode him with whip and spCr, and he cried fraud at every jump. The government lands had been entrusted to hss care and all efforts to settle these lands in accordance with existing stat u.es. We're regarded by him ss evidence of fraud and direct attack by rogues upon the property entrusted to his keep ing. He filled the couatry with a gang of spies Whcss every duty wac % see evil ID any lend cieim filed and 10 .e d the morbid mind of theIr master on their own magninEs. This secur- ei them fsvor and plsased him, but in the meantime the country suffered anl Ind lccators were made to endure expense, torturous de lays and almcst uysDff. rsble annoy

Sparks vas q nonomaaisc on fraud and his hirelings throughout the oouliry taking up the refrain, increased the mans mslady. Never within the history of this gov ernment has the general land cffice been in such chaotic condition as at present, and the longer Sparks remained n office the more iuexiricsble things becsne. and bu: for tse timely and oft-repeated in- terfeIence of Lamar, the entire land office machinery would have been still more hopelessly clogged. His successor, be be who be may, uill be beset by her cuiean lsbors the moment he enters the office.

Particulars of the Hassayampa Strike.

The Howard mining claim, the eIoep- tlonsl richness of which has caused con siderable excitement in Prescott during the past ten days, is situated on the upper Hasssysmpa creek, about uipe nearly due south from Prescott. It Is approschsble by wagon road within 8 few huodred ysrds, in two directions, ty the Prescott and Brsds shaw wagon road. which crosses the vein 800 or 1000 feet north of the shaft m which the rich min eral is found, and by the road tn the old Chase mine that ends st point about the same distance south of the shaft. There IS also 8 trail to Hsrlsn's cabin, which runs between the two roads.
 The vein IS DO new strike, on the con trary, II IS Ru old location, an1 lis ores have been known for years to be worth about S25 per ton. While doing the little work required by the United States mining law, the owners started to sink shafi on the vein on hillside between the creek and the Prescott and Bradshaw road. At depth of about seven feet blast was put ir. which opened 6 pocket of wonderfully rich gold ore. ss is evil dent from the fact that from the ore looseped by the blast, the owners pound ed out a lot of gold, which WAS brought to town, melted, run into 6 bar, and sold tn the Arizona Bank, which contained sl, ,9l in gold, snd S21 0S in silver.
 The work of the succeeding four days resulted. from the same methods of working, in the production of another bsr. which Mr. ". c. HsZeltine, cashier of the Bank of Arizona, produced at the meeting, containing Sl,028,53 gold and SIS silver. The value of both bars IS S2,5l5,52.
 In addition 10 the bars, NIT. Harlan has sold quite 8 quantity of the ore for cabIne. specimens and has lot on hand. which 1t IS proposed shall ne re- duced to gold bare, at hIs leisure, an also three or four tons of ore on the dump at the shaft, estimated to bc worth, perhaps. Sl00 per ton.
 Hsrlsn's statement IS that the whole amount SO far taken out will net eX- ceed S4 900, all of which has been found In sinking the last three feet in the bot tom of the sbaft.
 HOu. Levi Bssbford produced piece of ore that came out of the bottom of the shaft. which Frank Alters picked up on the dump and Mir. BsshfOrd bought of Harlan, that weighs three pounds and seven ounces (snd is now on eIhibi ton st Bones fruit storel which good judges estimates, contains $50 to S6O in gold.
 The members of the committee who examined the vein above and below the shaft. state that on tbe Howard claim, tb- ledge IS exposed for & distance ot 1000 feet or more, ID little holes and cats, which show from siI 10 ten inches of ore of the same character as that at the shaft, on the surface, showing ID pan or horn spoon washing, value of s25 or 8 per tan, and that the rich ore m the bottom of the shaft apparently pitches m B northerly direction into the bill, and that the prospect of continu- ous body of rich ore, for at least three hudred feei above the shaft, IS most oI celIent, judging from all the surface in dlcatiops.-Journsl Miner.

A BIG MISTAKE,

The moulting seaso or the season which
hens shed their feathers will soon be at
an end. The process is one that in certain
respects debilitates and prevents hens
from laying. The reason of this is that
the growing of new feathers requires all
the nitrogen and phosphates contained in
the food and there is none left to form
the egg. A curious fact about the hen,
and one that illustrates the foregoing
statement, is this, if a hens leg be broken
during the laying season, she will lay
her eggs without shells until the break is
mended. The reason for this must be
that all the lime contained in the food is
required to unite the broken bone, there
is therefore none for the formation of egg
shells. The formation of new feathers
does not require any c%arbonaceous or fat
producing food. consequently well fed
hens get very fat during the moulting.
Many farmers and poultry raisers not
understanding all about these Things kill
off their old hens because they think they
have stopped laying and are fat. This is
a great mistake, because if the proper
material be furnished them with their
food to supply the increased demand for
nitrogen and phosphates before mentioned
the old hens will be through shedding
feathers much sooner and will begin lay
ing OIL the approach of cold weather and
they will continue to lay vigorously all
winter while the young pullets, reserved
TO take the place of the old hens, may not
begin to lay until much later in the sea-
son Very many people have learned
from experience that Sheridan's Condition
Powder mixed C daily with their food
will supply the extra material needed to
strengthen and invigorate their hens, ell
abling them to grow new plumage quick
ly and commence laying early. Those
who commence now to use Sheridan
Powder. will find that their young pullet;
will commence to lay at from four to six
months old, and will lay continuously
through the winter. The Farmers Poultry
Raising Guide, published by l. S. John
son Il Co., at % Custom House ST., BOs

of information on this subject. johnson
